No precompiled binaries are provided.

If you aren't actually using mod_python specific features and only
need to host a WSGI application, see mod_wsgi instead which has Python
2.6 binaries.

Start out by reading:

  dist/build_installer.bat

in mod_python source code.

Also read old instructions at:

  http://www.modpython.org/pipermail/mod_python/2006-September/022092.html
  http://www.modpython.org/pipermail/mod_python/2007-May/023637.html

You will need however to use Visual Studio 2008 instead and make other
changes as appropriate dependent on tools being used.
